  • Yup, but being a parent doesnt make you know things and “the doctor said we should expect this” makes apparently people (at least these ones close to me) complacent to the harm. I am just against the suffering and it makes me upset. While I know this isn’t a likely common story its one that is close to home and happening so… Yeah. I dunno. It does at least once. I am happy you are on the right side of empathy to try again with something new to help someone. There should never be 1 answer only and it feels wrong to just accept it.
    I dunno this is such a failure of people with authority in my case but authority figure doesnt mean all knowing. And I have no authority to make it stop.


  • Yeah, the parents were warned about the night terrors and supposedly hanging outside the room to be there to cuddle her as soon as she starts screaming is enough to subside them and get her back to bed but jeeze that is a horrible symptom to be ok with or even struggle through. Flailing and scratching, if it leaves marks I would call that instastop bad.

    I am on the side of med swap but they supposedly like the results of the medication otherwise which I feel is not worth it.





  • I know a 5 year old that the teachers at her private school complained that they were spending to much time talking to other children instead of doing school work so the teachers recommended that she be put on medication.

    Now apparently she just has horrible night terrors that has her rip at her skin each night but she’s much more calm now… Anyways the teacher ended up hitting her and the 5 year old got expelled for being a nuisance anyways.



  • Polish Roman Catholic background. Not exactly tolerant either and now I live in a place that famously is Mennonite and Amish.

    That is a far more creative shirt than mine, wearing your own style is always incredible. However…

    If they will make you suffer why not suffer on your own terms for a cause you think worth it? Why wait to be starved by someone’s hand other than your own?

    I mean I get being scared of it and don’t make it a habit to hurt yourself needlessly. But I would rather live a life being myself as much as I can and be good to those who deserve it and let the weirdos who have a problem with it suffer my existence rather than the other way around. They don’t wish for my existence? To bad they can suffer, because I exist.
    But I said I have bad self preservation skills, we all can’t make it out of this world alive, and I have no intention of cheating the game.

    I wish you safety and health though. Its not good to feel at the whims of others.






  • Oh I see… Well I’m sorry to disappoint but I don’t have any drugs to sell you.

    Its honestly ok to not be interested in a medium, if its not for you don’t look at it as if you are missing out.
    If you actually do want to get into them it might be best to find a story you sound interested in first and then make your way through it. But you don’t have to smoke the perverbial cigarettes just cause everyone else is.

    Like anything. You got to put the time and effort in but if you don’t want to and you don’t enjoy it then you are missing the starting steps needed to push yourself to sit through it. Don’t. This is not required.




  • So many depressed people on Lemmy, everyone just going with dying huh?

    I mean I am excited to finally flex my creativity, see if there is anything I can figure out how to do with all our crap and the new world. Maybe some kind of silly The Grinch level home full of housing code violations and crazy contraptions made of garbage while I cross breed pea/beans.

    It would be cool if when I die people thought of me as some weird hermit alchemist and as they wander through my house finding tools of the old world uncover a lost truth and then some YA type shit happens as a result.

    Dying is easy, we all do it eventually, the question is, if you do anything before you get to the same finish line.
